Easy Homemade Graham Crackers
These homemade graham crackers are crunchy, slightly sweet, and full of flavor. It’s a great recipe to get the kids involved, and they can help with mixing and cutting the dough. Let’s gather the ingredients and follow the steps for a delightful treat!
Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup milk
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, brown sugar, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
- Add the softened butter to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in the honey and milk until the dough comes together. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour as necessary.
- Transfer the dough to a floured surface and roll it out to about 1/8 inch thickness. Use a knife or a pizza cutter to cut the dough into squares or rectangles.
- Place the cut dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a bit of space between each cracker.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The crackers will harden as they cool, so don’t worry if they seem soft when you take them out.
- Allow the graham crackers to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy them plain, or use them to create delicious s’mores!
Now that you’ve made your very own homemade graham crackers, enjoy them as a snack or as the perfect base for your favorite dessert recipes. Happy baking!
